668 A Small Incident
Su Ming smiled sincerely. “I understand. I’ll go and have a good chat with her in a while.”
Su Kun frowned. “You can have a chat, but you have to remember that you need to convey the meaning of friendship and favor, not flattery. No matter how much she develops in the future, she is currently still a little President Chu. She has not reached the point where the heir of the Su family has to bow down.”
Su Ming nodded and looked at the watch on his wrist. There was still an hour till eight o’clock. “Then I’ll leave first. I’ll keep an eye on the preparations for the banquet and make sure nothing goes wrong.”
Su Kun waved his hand and allowed him to leave quickly, lest he stayed on and was a bother.
Su Ming turned around and walked towards the door. When he was almost there, Su Kun’s voice rang out again. “Don’t tell anyone that I’m here; it’s annoying.”
Su Ming agreed, then opened the door and walked out.
Su Kun looked at the sea and was silent for a long time before muttering to himself, “You see, Xiao Ming has also grown up.” He laughed a little. “This little rascal isn’t like the two of us at all. We should let him suffer a little and let him know not to underestimate anyone.”
Perhaps it was because he had been staring at the sea without blinking, Su Kun’s eyes were a little red. “Otherwise, he will end up like me sooner or later.”
Chu Ning had been tossing and turning since early in the morning and had watched a good show. She was a little tired, so she set an alarm and slept for a while.
The alarm rang, and Chu Ning reached out to turn it off. She got out of bed and tidied herself up. Just as she changed into her gown, she heard a knock on the door.
Chu Ning tried her best to pull the zipper on her back, but it seemed to be stuck. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t pull it up.
When Yan Shen did not hear a response, he thought that Chu Ning had not woken up yet. He knocked harder a few times. “Chu Ning? The banquet is about to begin.”
Chu Ning was caught in a dilemma. She couldn’t take it off nor put it on. The party was about to start so she was wearing a formal dress, and the zipper could not be pulled up. Yan Shen was still outside. Chu Ning feebly sighed, and could only ask Yan Shen to get a waitress to come. “Yan Shen, the zipper of my gown is stuck. Help me call a waitress over.”
When Yan Shen heard this, he looked up and swept his gaze around. All he saw were male waiters, so he could only stop one and ask, “Are there any waitresses nearby?”
The person who was stopped was stumped and immediately shook his head. “No, there are only two waitresses in the bedroom area. Mr. Xiao Wang and Mr. Wu both brought their daughters here. They were called away to bathe the two ladies.”
Yan Shen was rendered speechless by this reason. Even if he and Chu Ning were anxious, there was nothing they could do. There were not many guests with their daughters, and it was a tacit rule that there were more male than female waiters in the bedroom area.
Yan Shen was still a little unwilling to give up and asked, “When will they be coming back?”
“They left less than 10 minutes ago, so they’ll probably be back in another 15 minutes.”
Yan Shen looked at his watch. There were only 15 minutes before the banquet started. It would take another five minutes to walk to the banquet hall; it would be too late.
He could only stand at the door of Chu Ning’s room and say helplessly, “Chu Ning, there are no more waitresses.”
Chu Ning was still struggling with the zipper, but it was in a clever position. If it weren’t for the air-conditioning in the room, Chu Ning would have been drenched in sweat.
At this moment, Yan Shen had brought back this despairing piece of news; Chu Ning sat down on the chair, almost overflowing with speechlessness. The two of them were silent for a while on either side of the door. Chu Ning looked at the time on her phone, walked to the door, and opened it.
Yan Shen was standing silently at the door. He was shocked by the abrupt opening of the door. Before he could see what was going on in front of him, he was dragged into the room by Chu Ning.
Yan Shen staggered and fell through the entrance. He held onto the wall and barely managed to stand firm. Then, he heard Chu Ning slam the door shut behind him.
He was startled by the bang. When he turned around, he was like a robot whose joints were rusted. He creaked and slowly turned around. In the end, the first thing he saw when he turned around was a big patch of Chu Ning’s snow-white collarbone, which pierced his eyes, and made his mind go blank.
With great difficulty, Chu Ning held onto her heavy strapless gown so she wouldn’t reveal herself. She frowned and looked up at the stunned Yan Shen. Her frown deepened. “Yan Shen? What’s wrong with you? Stop daydreaming and help me zip up.”
As she spoke, Chu Ning turned around and pushed her hair aside, revealing a large part of her back and the stuck zipper.
